Hunza Nagar Autumn tour is magnificent and an unforgettable experience. It is the best time to explore the beautiful Hunza valley. Hunza valley is the prime attraction for tourists, as the spectacular scenery of the surrounding mountains is overwhelming. A view of Tupopdan peak, Shisper peak, Kuroon peak, and Gulmit Tower from various points of Hunza valley makes it unique. The valley is known for its delicious fruit, terraced fields, local people’s longevity, and its changing colors in various seasons. The spring turns the valley to white, pink, red, and purple.
Our bespoke tour programs pursue the popular Karakorum Highway along the Indus and provide the finest opportunities to explore the colors of autumn in Fairy Meadows, Gilgit, Naltar, Ghizer, Hunza, and Nagar along with views of mighty Nanga Parbat, Rakaposhi, Diran, Ultar Peaks, Golden Peak and several other high mountains in the region. The addition of Skardu and other towns in Baltistan further enhances the scenic value and makes it one of the best autumn destinations on this planet.
Summer is green with colorful flowers while autumn is the most colorful as the whole region wraps in yellow, red, and orange. You may have witnessed the colors of autumn throughout the world but you will not see a beautiful mountain-like Tupopdan behind the colorful trees and valleys.
There isn’t any specific date for the autumn season to arrive in Hunza, most of the time it arrives on the 2nd the first week of October and the full autumn reaches its peak by the 3rd and 4th week of October.
The by-air route to Hunza is to take a flight from Islamabad to Gilgit and an hour and a half drive by vehicle from Gilgit to Hunza; the distance is about 100 km. The by-road route through Naran and Babusar roads is subject to the region’s climate conditions. If it has been sowed early at Babusar top, it will be closed for traffic. So, getting the latest information on that route is always good. The route on Karakoram Highway through Abbottabad, Besham, Dassu, Chilas, and Gilgit is open throughout the year. Book this Pakistan tour and enjoy your trip.
